Folks, I am searching for info on surviving Frisco cabooses and equipment in Kansas. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks
One of the fellows on the Frisco E-Mail List recently put out some information about surviving cabooses. I will see if I can find that for you here. ------------------ Ship It On The FRISCO!
Try contacting the fellow on www.caboose@chaffee.net He's the resident caboose historian on a lot of message boards (Frisco, Railspot, Streamliner), and has recently put out a list of surviving Frisco crummies. ------------------ Ship IT on the Frisco! Bob T.
